I have pots and get distressing episodes of tight chest with bad vomiting, sweating, air hunger and weakness. oxygen and bp mostly remain normal. occurs standing but also sitting up. okay for pots?

Odd: Those are not typical symptoms of pots - you should be more completely evaluated.

Diagnostic: Symptoms are diagnostic of pots. If not well controlled then increase your salt and water intake, wear support stockings, get up cautiously, and may need meds like midodrine or flourinef. Midodrine increases the vascular tone and keeps blood from pooling in your feet and the other drug is a salt retaining steroid .Recognize signs and symptoms so you can sit and raise your legs to abort an episode.
